Chapter 890 Make a gesture

"Hahahahahaha..."

"Oh, I laughed so hard that my stomach hurts and swells, what should I do!"

Ziya and Zhao Junrui laughed so hard that they almost fell to the ground and rolled over.

But under Fang Xiaofu's stare, they didn't dare to be too arrogant, and ran into the garden while laughing.By the way, I caught up with Zheng Weiting who I just met not long ago.

"This subordinate knows his mistake." Li Quan apologized embarrassingly with a blushing face, thinking in his heart how this bewildered young lady in charge would deal with her.
"No matter what you're thinking, it's best not to have crooked thoughts. Also, be more careful in the future." Fang Xiaofu glanced at Li Quan lightly, then turned and continued walking towards the main courtyard.

Li Quan secretly wiped his cold sweat from behind, and hurriedly followed.Seeing this, Chunliu and Xiahe felt their hearts pounding, and only then did they realize how tolerant the third young lady was to them.

Fang Xiaofu went to the main hall and sat down, Chun Liu hurriedly asked if he wanted to make tea, Fang Xiaofu nodded, and she hurried to make tea.Standing behind her, Xia He saw Yuan Sanniang looking at the door behind her, and immediately whispered to Fang Xiaofu.

Li Quan was about to report the general affairs, when he saw Fang Xiaofu let Yuan Sanniang in, he had to shut his mouth and wait.

"Yuan, don't worry, wait for Miss Lin to come and make arrangements together. I don't have much work for you for the time being, so embroider the pattern I drew for you to show me. After the little girls arrive, the work will be as soon as possible." There are more."

Yuan Sanniang quickly answered yes, and stood aside.

Only then did Li Quan go forward and talk about the recent situation in the mansion. They were all trivial matters. Fang Xiaofu was a little impatient to hear it, but she knew that as a housewife, she must understand and keep it in her hands. things.

Even if she doesn't want to waste time on this kind of thing, she still has to make a gesture.

However, after listening to Li Quan's report, she still made a suggestion: "Steward Li, from now on, you don't need to report everything to me about this kind of daily routine, and you can handle it yourself."

"It is enough to report to me with the account book at the end of each month. But if there are major events in the month, such as festivals, birthdays, banquets, etc., you must ask for instructions in advance."

"It's up to you to add a few household items, buy a few pieces of fabric, and what to eat today. If I have any disagreements, I will talk to you again."

"Yes, this subordinate takes orders." Li Quan bent over happily.If the master is really so talkative, his work would not be so hard.

Then Fang Xiaofu shared her thoughts on the arrangement of the people in the house.

At present, there are only a few places in the house. There are still small courtyards in the backyard that have not been arranged, and the servants also have their residences. It is very spacious, so there is nothing to allocate.

But she decided to recruit about a hundred little girls to do the work first, so she must have centralized board, lodging and management like a large courtyard, and needed a suitable place to house them.

However, southern gardens are not like northern houses. There are not so many clearly separated architectural styles, and they focus more on freehand landscapes rather than heavy and rigid patterns.

Even if it could be accommodated in the backyard, the kitchen might not be able to supply it.At present, only the main yard has a small kitchen, and there are two yards in the back yard with a small kitchen, plus a large kitchen and a kitchen for servants, and the rest are without kitchens.

"Although there are not many houses in Lvyin Garden, the ground is flat and spacious. Is it the place where the owner used to run horses? You should first contact the craftsmen and import materials. When the young master and the others come back, immediately start building a square building with a patio."

"Before that, except for Longcuiju and Yanran Pavilion, which are left untouched, the rest of the houses have been cleared out to accommodate the new maid."

"After the Lvyin Garden is repaired, let them all move there. By the way, clean up the largest yard in the garden. The third master and the third lady should be here soon."

Fang Xiaofu recalled this and immediately gave another order.They arrived in the capital three days in advance, and today is the sixteenth. Whether the speed is normal or not, Third Uncle and the others should be arriving soon.

Yesterday, she was disturbed by Mr. Changle's matter, so she didn't have time to think about some things, even if she thinks about it now, it's inconvenient.Forget it, let's discuss it after everyone comes back tomorrow night.

As soon as Fang Xiaofu's urgent matters were arranged, the porter came to report, and Lin Dujuan came to work.

Fang Xiaofu nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the big girl who had changed into new clothes and pink silk flowers on her head.Knowing that he is on the job with the most spiritual and pleasing side shows that this person is spiritually motivated and respects this job.

Only Yuan Sanniang saw her at the side, her eyes couldn't help but darken, and then she closed her eyes to hide the sudden gloomy look in her eyes.

After Fang Xiaofu asked Minglin Dujuan about the situation, he asked her to sign the contract, handed two copies of the contract to Li Quan, and took it to the yamen together with the contract signed by Yuan Sanniang yesterday.

"Miss Lin, you go to settle down with Chunliu first, and come to see me in Changxuan later." Fang Xiaofu saw Lin Dujuan was holding a small bundle on his arm, and said after she saluted.

Lin Dujuan quickly took orders and followed Chunliu.Like Yuan Sanniang, she was placed in a side room in the main courtyard.

The area of ​​the main courtyard is the largest in the whole house. In addition to the five main rooms, there are side rooms on both sides of it. There are open pavilions, flower halls, passage halls, and light and dark pavilions on both sides.

There is also a small corner courtyard where the main house used to be a ancestral hall and a Buddhist hall, and there are side courtyards where servants live on both sides.The front is naturally the main hall and the side hall.

At present, Fang Xiaofu and the others have limited space to use. Zhao Junrui led his people to occupy the lower side, and the other side was converted into a library and meeting room, and two toilets were built in the open space on the side.

Lin Dujuan secretly looked at the layout of the main courtyard all the way, and felt a little excited. She didn't expect to be able to work as a housekeeper in a big family. When she heard the owner's statement that she was recruiting a housekeeper instead of a nanny, she was so excited that she almost cried .

After experiencing yesterday's disappointment, patience, and acceptance, and today when I told her that all of this is true and that she is really recruiting a female manager, I felt a sense of ecstasy in my heart, so unreliable.

But after seeing everything in the yard, she finally regained some sense of reality.

Yes, now she is a steward next to the young wife of the family, and her ability to live in the main courtyard shows that the steward's status is very important.

If Fang Xiaofu knew that she was thinking about these things at this moment, he would definitely tell her speechlessly: You think too much!

Fang Xiaofu told Li Quan a few more things to pay attention to, then got up and went back to the open room at the back.

The main hall is the place to receive distinguished guests, and there is no need to be so grand when listening to the work reports of servants on weekdays.But Fang Xiaofu is used to going his own way, so he doesn't care.

After a while, Xia He brought her painting folder and paint box, and she took it and started to draw.
